Why did you move to Canada?:
Â
One of my best friends was born in the States, who introduced lots of American shows and movies to me. That was when I got to know Gossip Girl, High School Musical, etc. I thought North American school life fit me better, so I talked to my parents, who knew that I am not the type of person who will sit there for hours and study. They agreed, and now I am here.Â
Â
